Ramadan local vacation things to do suggestion.

Once again its Ramadan time here in the UAE, particularly here in Dubai. I am on local vacation and I have nothing to do because things didn't come according to my plan.

Before taking this vacation I have so many plan.

1. To go out of town. Last year we went to Istanbul Turkey, this time I can't because I don't have much money because I bought a Macbook.

2. To enroll in languages, or website design course. I wanted but the time is limited and cannot catch the full course.

3. To do a youtube cooking show. I am a cook by profession. I am ready having all the raw Mise En Place but suddenly I got a new room mate. and he is sleeping in daytime which is best time to shoot the video.

4. Challenge myself to vlog on public. I tried yesterday but I am not satisfied. So Im going to do it more.

Now that I spend already two days of my 17 days vacation and still not doing anything. Until now I am still browsing the web for a possible training course, part-time job, or even volunteering for a charity works.

The company is legitimate and managed to schedule him a kitchen trial and interview to a potential employer and it was a success. (kitchen trial is common practices in Australia if you are applying as a cook/chef even as kitchen hand)
My friend went back to Dubai and started to complete all his requirements and then encourage me to apply too.

And yes I did send my CV to Ausphin and after few days got an interview. The interview with Ausphin is…

Australia particularly Sydney is one of the most expensive city to live, in despite Australia is also the country that gives more salary to their employees. If you are coming to Australia on a working visa, it is required by the Australian immigration that your sponsor/company must give you a salary of not less than 53,900 Australian Dollars annually. That is roughly 900 Australian Dollars net every week.

My Cost of living in Sydney
I first came to Australia staying in a backpacker guesthouse paying 25 Australian Dollars each night for three nights. I then found a shared room of 4 people a total of 8 people in one apartment paying 125 Australian Dollars every week including everything except food. The apartment is not comfortable so I moved to a single room paying 200 Australian Dollars every week in a shared apartment with four people. Some of this apartment are usually providing a set of bidding but if they're not, blankets are available at a very cheap price from Kmart, Target,…
